Abstract
In a semiconductor integrated circuit device, a plurality of cell rows each including standard cells arranged in the X direction are placed. The plurality of cell rows include a first cell row having a height H 1 and a second cell row having a height H 2 (H 1 <H 2 ). The first cell row includes a logic cell and a cell having no logical function, and the second cell row includes a logic cell and a cell having no logical function. Nanosheets of the cells in the first cell row are smaller in width in the Y direction than nanosheets of the cells in the second cell row.
